How to Communicate with Your Spouse

Listening is always a great way to get an idea of what you want to communicate to your spouse. What you think needs to be said may be far away from what your spouse has on their mind.

If you have a partner that finds it hard to communicate their feelings, try having questions prepared that will open the door for them to address their feelings and share their desires for where they would like to see the conversation to go.

Some starting points could be, "How do you feel about...", or "Do you think we can...?",

A good way to keep the communication going is to ask questions about there statements that let them know you are interested in their feelings.
